Arcadia College: the applicant's brief

6 findings
  1. The short answer

    Arcadia College was a public institution in Arcadia, Missouri, and it is not operating as a university today. It suits readers who are checking an old institution for historical interest, not applicants looking for a place to enroll now.

  2. What you can study

    Arcadia College is no longer open, so there is no active programme catalogue for study. It is recorded with bachelorโ€™s-level study and 10 programme listings, including subjects such as general cultural studies, computer science, business administration, environmental sciences, law, psychology, and teacher training, but these are historical references rather than current offerings.

  3. Getting in

    There is no current admissions process because Arcadia College closed. Anyone researching it for academic or historical reasons should confirm details through archival records or the institutionโ€™s historical references rather than an admissions office.

  4. What it costs

    Arcadia College does not publish current tuition because it is closed. Living costs would be the usual costs tied to studying and living in Missouri, but there is no active student fee information to confirm with the college.

  5. Coming from abroad

    The language of instruction is not published, and there is no current international-student process because the college is closed. If you are comparing it with active universities, check whether a current institution publishes programme language, visa support, housing, and fee information before applying.

  6. How it compares

    With 2,515 universities in the United States, Arcadia College is a historical outlier rather than a present-day option. Its main value is as a closed institution with a documented academic past, not as a live choice for applicants.

Written from this university's catalogue entry and its cited encyclopedia summary. Figures are only shown where the institution or a cited source publishes them โ€” always confirm fees and entry requirements with the university itself before applying.

Overview

Arcadia College, located in Arcadia, Missouri, United States, was founded by Rev. J.C. Berryman in 1843. The institution was associated with the Methodist Episcopal Church. Berryman then sold the institution in 1858 and it closed in 1861. The buildings were used as hospital for Union soldiers before reverting to Berryman in 1863. He returned for a few years and tried to restart the institution. The college then went through several owners and a four-story brick building was erected in 1870. Arcadia College closed in 1877. The building was acquired by Order of the Ursulines for Ursuline Academy/College. The school closed in 1971. The Lewis Lecture Series at Texas A&M is named for a former chair of A&M's English Department who served as president of Arcadia from 1870 to 1873. The Nostalgic Place Bed & Breakfast operates on the former campus
